The branch of culture it represents is the traditional culture branch in the Yellow River basin, which flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, among which the Woodcut New Year pictures in the south of Shanxi are the most famous. This kind of wood-block New Year picture technology is very rich in connotation, including the use of traditional Chinese mural painting powder, powder is born in the Sui and Tang dynasties mural painting an important tool, which shows that powder in the field of Chinese traditional art to participate in the creation of a significant position, artistic value is very high. In this paper, we will specifically discuss the traditional Shanxi New Year wood-block pictures and traditional mural paintings, and deeply understand the basic concepts and characteristics of the two. Finally, this paper studies the internal subtle relationship between the two from three aspects: the remains of the works, the time of painting and literary illustrations.展开更多

[Method] The first polar body extrusion rate, oocyte glutathione (GSH) content, positive rate of brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) staining and development potential of activated oocytes or fertilized oocytes were employed as main indicators to investigate the effects of follicular mural granulosa cell (MGC) coculture on cytoplasmic maturation of cumulus cell-removal oocytes (Denuded Oocyte, DO). [Result] According to in vitro maturation results, compared with DO group, the first polar body extrusion rate of porcine oocytes in DO+MGC group was not significantly different, but the nuclear maturation process was improved and was more similar to that in COC (cumulus-oocyte complex) group. Detection of GSH content in mature oocytes showed that there was no significant difference between DO+ MGC group (optical density of 1 053.67) and COC group (optical density of 1 426.00) or between DO+MGC group and COC+GC group (optical density of 1 541.00), however, GSH content in mature oocytes of DO group (optical density of 724.67) was significantly lower than that of COC group and COC+GC group (P0.05). Detection of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) activity showed that there was no significant difference in BCB positive oocyte rate between DO +MGC group (88.26% ) and COC group (92.75%) or between DO+MGC group and DO group (82.86% ), however, BCB positive oocyte rate of DO group was significantly lower than that of COC group (P0.05). Furthermore, the cleavage rate and blastocyst rate of activated mature oocytes derived from DO +MGC group (94.98% and 43.67% , respectively) were significantly higher than those from DO group (52.54% and 8.97%, respectively) (P0.05), and were not significantly different compared with those from COC group (97.11% and 38.30%, respectively). In addition, the cleavage rate of fertilized oocytes derived from DO+MGC group (72.65%) showed no significant difference compared with that from DO group (63.59%), but the blastocyst rate of DO+MGC group was significantly higher than that of DO group (9.88%) (P0.05). [Conclusion] MGC coculture can significantly improve the in vitro cytoplasmic maturation quality of denuded porcine oocytes, thereby enhancing the subsequent developmental potential.展开更多
